Chapter 281 Cultivating Against Time

“Phew!”

A sword light flashed.

“Boom!”

A Spine Pig monster’s huge body, as tall as 30 feet, fell heavily on the ground like a collapsed sculpture. In the half-meter wound in its throat, the brown blood flowed like a flood that had burst the dam.

That was a demon at the Completion of the Demonic Beast Realm, with black spurs like thorns all over his body, and the most terrible defensive ability. It was said that those demons were able to contend against masters at the Completion of the Martial Soldier Realm, and even masters at the Primary Rank of the Martial Mentor Realm. Having struggled with Ding Hao for more than four hours, it had been eventually killed by him with one sword strike, as Ding Hao noticed a flaw.

“Wheeze...”

Supported by the sword and saber in his hands, Ding Hao bent over, breathing heavily.

The warm sweat formed mist in the cold air, and Ding Hao’s clothes had already been torn to pieces during the fight. The fine rags stuck tightly to his body because they were completely wet.

Among the shocking scars in arms and back, the bright red blood flowed out like a spring, giving Ding Hao a very embarrassing look.

The prey was, after all, a demonic beast at the Completion of the Demon Realm, which was equivalent to the Completion of the Human Martial Soldier Realm. It was not so easy to deal with.

After a little recovery of physical strength, Ding Hao found a sheltered col and he began to operate magic skills to regulate breathing and for healing his wounds.

Now, it had been a month since the Blood Dragon Village was wiped out.

A month ago, Ding Hao passed Wang Juefeng, the cynical man, a message through Li Yunqi. As expected, the problem concerning the residence rights for the villagers from the Valley Village was solved.

The villagers had by then moved into the extremely safe city. Under Ding Hao’s arrangement, with the treasures obtained from the Blood Dragon Village, the villagers purchased several estates in the city, which were enough for them to feed themselves. As long as they managed their businesses properly, they could even accumulate wealth and pass it on to their future generations without worries.

Gao Xue’er, the little girl, was sent to an extremely well-known martial club in Peaceful City to learn martial arts at a high price. In accordance with Ding Hao’s plan, a year later, Gao Xue’er would be able to attend the entry examination of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, to further her martial arts studies.

After handling all of this, Ding Hao had fulfilled his commitment to Guo Nu.

The Gao family lived a worry-free life. Ding Hao didn’t have to stay with them as their guarding warrior.

After dealing with all this, Ding Hao did not bother to return to the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect.

For more than a month, he had been in the Snow Dragon Mountain. In addition to the day-to-day monotonous and boring cultivation, he was constantly challenging himself to hunt various kinds of demons and beasts, with the purpose of honing his own combat experience and skills. He had gained a lot as a result.

“Oh, haha, this wild boar looks so delicious...”

The devil cat Evil Moon appeared from nowhere. When he saw the huge body of the spine pig monster on the ground, he habitually swollened his head and swallowed the pig, which was more than a thousand times bigger than him.

“Whistle...” Ding Hao exhaled murky Qi; he then slowly opened his eyes and stood up.

After regulating his breath during the time for a stick of incense to burn, in his body, two types of Extreme Yang Sky Fire Qi and Extreme Yin Hell Qi energies were functioning so that his shocking wounds had healed, leaving red and shallow scars. Those scars would disappear completely the following day.

After a one-month cultivation period, Ding Hao’s strength had reached the Second Channel of Hand’s Minor Yang in 12 Standard Meridians and Five-apertured Martial Soldier Realm of Double Meridians of the Six-Strange-Meridian and the Ren Meridian. He had made a rocket-like progress. In addition, his body had been transformed by the mysterious white liquid and his recovery ability was really unbelievable, so within such a short time, his scars had disappeared.

“Next time, get a stronger opponent for me. The demonic beasts at the Completion realm were no long playing a honing-role.” Ding Hao looked at Evil Moon who was looking at him in a shifty-eyed manner and shook his head.”Perhaps I should look for demons at the Demon Soldier Realm.”

Evil Moon had a strange ability.

He could always find places where some demons were hiding or entrenched. Furthermore, he could follow Ding Hao’s requirement to find demons with stable strength for Ding Hao to kill and to obtain combat experience.

Such an ability seemed to have evolved from his ability of being good at finding natural treasures, and it was terrifying.

For one month, with such an ability enjoyed by the devil cat, Evil Moon, Ding Hao, in the vast Snow Dragon Mountain, found right demons at the Demonic Beast Realm, without failure of getting or encountering demons with too terrifying strength, so that he would suffer irresistible danger.

“Meow. Demons at the Demon Soldiers Realm? They are equivalent to masters at the Human Martial Mentors Realm. Are you sure that you are strong enough to cope with them?” The devil cat belched lazily and looked at Ding Hao in suspicion.

Ding Hao put away the rusted sword and long saber in his hands and ignored the cat.

This cat was becoming nastier.

Ding Hao had finished his today’s training. It was getting late. He looked at the beautiful scenery in the distance. A thick plumbum cloud, like a collapsed mountain, was rolling over from a distance, and a heavy snowstorm was approaching.

“Let’s go back.”

...

Ding Hao’s temporary residence was on an ice peak, about fifty kilometers away from the Rising Dragon Peak. There was the internal area in the Snow Dragon Mountain. With his flame Qi, Ding Hao opened up a not-very-big ice cave half way up the mountain and lived a comfortable life.

“Mr. Ding, are you back? Today’s dinner is already done...” Wang Feng, the bald, sneered, with the apron around his waist. He nodded with a smile like a well-behaved male cook at home would.

More than ten black knights were captured at the beginning and they were lucky.

Just like the saying goes that ‘monkeys scatter when the tree falls’. After three village chiefs were sentenced to death with ‘Sentence by Scorching Hot Saber’, all the villagers from the Blood Dragon Village were almost slaughtered by people in the Jianghu world except for those guys. They survived out of the reason of ‘abandoning evil and following good’ early.

Except for the bald man, more than a dozen other villagers in Valley Village were sent to Peaceful City as bodyguards or labor. The bald man was kept by Evil Moon, the devil cat, since the cat needed a servant.

“Meow. Little Bald, come here to knead my shoulders for me.” Evil Moon jumped into the ice cave and laid in bed covered with warm hide. Straddling his legs, he waved his claw to the bald person.

The bald man rushed to him with a smile. With his carrot-like fingers, the bald man kneaded the cat’s shoulders carefully, without the slightest carelessness.

Very soon, comfortable snores, made by the devil cat were heard. The cat fell asleep delightfully.

Ding Hao shook his head.

What a cat with such a bad taste!

When the bald man encounted the cat, it was his lifetime nemesis. Unfortunately, he was tossed about so that he was helpless. Perhaps he had not been as dedicated to serving his father.

It could be said that the wicked person was tortured by the devil cat.

But then again, after being tossed about during those days, the bald man’s cooking had greatly advanced. What he had cooked just then turned out to be barely delicious.

After having dinner indiscriminately, Ding Hao entered the specially-developed ice room, and began to carry out his crazy cultivation against time.
